12 Days of Christmas Nails: Day 2 (Reindeer Nail Art)

Here goes Day 2 of my Christmas themed manicures! Coming up with ideas for this theme is so much fun and it’s really getting me in the mood for Christmas. I thought I’d struggle to come up with 12 designs but as it turns out, I may have a job narrowing it down to just 12!

I can remember as a child being read the poem, ‘Twas The Night Before Christmas’ every Christmas Eve and I always tried so hard to remember all the names of the reindeer. I’ll list all the ones I can remember and you guys can fill me in on the rest… Dancer, Prancer, Donner, Blitzen, Comet, Cupid, Vixen? Haha, am I right so far?

I used an unnamed Collection 2000 white as a base colour.

I outlined the main shape of the reindeer with Barry M Mushroom and then used black and white acrylic paint for the details. The antlers were done with L’Oreal Black Bean. Rudoph’s nose is Barry M Red Glitter over La Femme Cherry Red.
